Re: touchpad not detected after Xorg update

Probably related to the xorg upgrade with hotplugging

If you haven't already searched the forums there seem to be a few threads going already where people are dealing with issues with this upgrade

I searched and got my keyboard and touchpad set up to work with hotplugging. Keyboard worked, touchpad did not. Any configuration changes I made dont get reconginzed. I dont know what the deal is unfortunately

Re: touchpad not detected after Xorg update

To circumvent hotplugging insert - as stated in the wiki article - the following in your xorg.conf:

   Section "ServerFlags"
     Option "AutoAddDevices" "False"
   EndSection

Use LVM2!
